Howdy. It's wonderful Wednesday! Another hot, dry one here. Some indoor plant watering today, and not a lot else on the agenda.

Howdy. It's thrilling Thursday! Not too thrilling, actually, but it is what it is. About the same as yesterday except I do need to get out in it.

Got out, got to the doctor, numbers looked good. Got shot while there. Flu started early supposedly, so I didn't wait until mid-October as usual.
Got home and had lunch. I think I may hear a nap calling!

Howdy. It's fantastic Friday! Looking at another hot one, with 20% chance of precipitation. I need to get out for a couple of things.

Howdy. It's satisfying Saturday! Pool party this afternoon, so the baked beans for 50 are in the oven. 30% chance of scattered thunder showers but a high temp of only 88 so it should be a great day for it!

Howdy. It's sumptuous Sunday! A bit hotter today, but at least it stayed nice for the pool party. Here is what the baked bean dish looked like at the end of the party:
I am moving a bit slow this morning and am pretty sure I want a nap today.

I liked the impossible whopper. Let's see what Mr. Wolfe thought of it!

Howdy. It's marvelous Monday! Back to hot as anything today, but we might get some relief on that again by mid-week. I MIGHT get out in it today, but probably not. So just the usual. Look to see if there are any more cords Orion chewed up. We found one last night that, fortunately, had NOT been plugged in, that he gad thoroughly chewed, almost all the way through. He would have had a shock if it had been plugged in. We think he did that while he was still teething, last year, and hope we won't find any more. As it was about an 8 inch section that was very thoroughly chewed, we hope that this wire was his only one. We can splice the wire and it will end up about 10 inches shorter than it was.
Also, check a couple of outside plants to see if they need water, scoop the litter boxes (daily chore there), feed the cats, sweep up some ever present cat hair, something that has become more apparent since adopting Orion last year. Our first cat, many years ago, was a long haired orange tabby. Then, for about 10 years, only short to medium hair cats (luck of the draw) and now this long haired black cat. I swear we could knit another cat from just a couple of week's worth of fur brushed off and/or lost by him!
Of course we adopt cats based on mutual attraction and a couple of other factors, but color, looks, and fur length are not factors at all. Orion is the tenth cat to be adopted into this family and we are happy to have him. I have loved them all and cried like a baby when we had to let them cross the rainbow bridge. The current four are all well loved and we give them the best care possible.

Howdy. It's terrific Tuesday! Need to do all the usual daily stuff, and get trash and recycles out to the curb for tomorrow's pick up, and give Lilo her Tuesday shot, and get out to buy cat food.

Howdy. It's wonderful Wednesday! The lawn crew is out there now, noisily doing their stuff. Smart of them to get out there early, before the heat sets in. They have been doing this for years, so I assume they know how to keep hydrated, take needed breaks, etc. They don't charge by the hour and I presume the guys aren't paid by the hour either so can take any breaks they need. With two to four of them out there, our yard does not take long.
I see that an empty box of corn flakes appeared on the counter overnight, so one item to add to the perpetual shopping list.

Howdy. It's thrilling Thursday! It's supposed to be a very pleasant day here, with a high of only 26C/80F and no chance of precipitation. Now I can almost believe that Fall is coming in a few days! If you had asked me last week I would have had more doubts on that front.
Not a lot on the calendar today, other than the usual daily stuff. I might get out to buy corn flakes or we may just have to scrape by on bran flakes or crispy rice cereal until I feel like getting out. Then again, there are a couple of places I have been wanting to check out and today just might be a good day to do that.

Howdy. It's fabulous Friday! I might get out today for those needed items, but it COULD wait until tomorrow, or even Sunday. Can you guess how much I don't love shopping? LOL!

I did get out, and got the needed grocery items, including the corn flakes. I had lunch while out, at Martin's on Jimmy Carter. A friend told me their breakfast is really good so breakfast for lunch, though some of the burgers and sandwiches did sound awfully good! Maybe next time. Breakfast was OK, for a fast food type breakfast.

Howdy. It's sensational Saturday! 58 degrees(!) out there now, but supposed to get to 86 for the high, with no chance of rain. I got the shopping done, but have to admit we (well, I) did celebrate National Pepperoni Pizza Day yesterday for supper, though we also had a cheese pizza since I am married to a vegetarian. Might see a friend (here at our house - yay, less social anxiety) for a bit today, might not, as scheduling can be difficult for busy people.

Howdy. It's sumptuous Sunday! Looks like a pleasant day, though still a bit warmer than I would like. Still, not as bad as it has been, so I can't complain...not that that has ever stopped me from complaining.
Not much on the agenda today. I think my lunch will be the leftover beef stew from the small pot I made yesterday.

Howdy y'all. It's marvelous Monday! Happy Summer Solstice! I might have to get out for some canned cat food today, but it's supposed to be relatively nice, though a bit warmer than I really like. At least the nights are nice and cool lately!

Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday! Another fairly hot, dry day expected here. Not a lot on the agenda. Perhaps a bit of sweeping up, vacuuming, and bathroom cleaning. And, of course, litter box scooping. I have already given Lilo her Tuesday shot, and subsequent treats.

Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday!
20% chance of rain today, but still rather hotter than I'd like. I may get out for a few things. I think I may get some chili started in a slow cooker to have for supper tonight. I can make some seasoned ground beef separately for my servings. I expect there will be left overs too.

Well, I got the chili (vegan, actually) going as planned.
I stole some of my ground beef for a patty melt for my lunch, on low carb, high fiber, whole wheat, toasted bread, browning the rest of the beef, and the rest of the onion, with some salt and seasoning, to add to MY chili, at supper, along with some cheese. The seasoned beef and onion are waiting in the fridge, in a small tightly sealed carryout bucket.
The remainder won't remain vegan at serving time either, as J most assuredly WILL add cheese!

Howdy all y'all. It's fantastic Fryday! I could fry an egg on the sidewalk this afternoon, if we had a sidewalk. That action has still been stalled since late spring, when I complained to the mayor about the hideous - and dangerous 6 foot wide, 3 foot deep, rock lined drainage ditch that they have run across my front yard, where the previous drainage had been a shallow, almost non-existent rut it the grass. There is no way they can justify a need to have this much drainage when the previous light drainage had never been a problem.
The engineers are supposedly working to try to eliminate the ditch (a ditch we had never agreed to in the first place, and were not informed of in advance) and install some kind of conduit, over which we can presumably have our 6 feet of lawn back.
I may need to get out today for a few things.

Howdy all y'all. It's satisfactory Saturday! The last pool party of the season is today so my giant pan of baked beans is in the oven. It's also my birthday! My driver's license says I was born in 1959 but I am sure it's a misprint.
I will be celebrating my 39th birthday today.

So far it's been a BUSY birthday! Got up at 6:00, rushed to Publix to get a 5-pack of foil "Giant Lasagna" pans, as I found I had used the last one two weeks ago for a pool party, came home, got the beans going in the oven, made and ate breakfast and had my morning tea, started the dishwasher, fed the cats, scooped the litter boxes, took my shower, unloaded the clean dishes, and have the last little bit of yesterday's laundry I will be folding and putting away in a moment.
Then, off to the party, where I will be helping to keep the food organized, as usual, but that's not too terribly hard. Well, I hear that the dryer stopped, so off to fold!

Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday! The party was great, but seemed long to me after the busy morning. I'd say I had a good birthday. A tiny slice of carrot cake last night before bed. That's a vegetable, right?
Today is J's birthday.

Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday! Not a lot on the agenda today, but maybe some light grocery shopping.
One of our sugar gliders, Bonnie, died suddenly yesterday. She was active, as normal, the prior night, and ate all of her food, but we found her last night, sitting in one of the places in her cage that she often sat, but lifeless. We think perhaps she had a heart attack. As best we could tell, it was quick and she couldn't have suffered much.
She was the friendliest of the two, and enjoyed human interaction. Clyde, her mate, will be very lonely without her and I am not sure what we can do about that, as we don't think we really want to bring a new sugar glider in, as it might be terrified by the cats, even though the cats can't really get into the cage.
Bonnie, 5 years or so ago.
